Warhol for under $100 USD YahoO!, by lee3 on May 3, 2008 17:31:40 GMT 1, Congrats! Not to burst your bubble but just a word of caution on this item. It does not appear to be from the print run of 200 of that image that he did in '67 though it is the exact same size. The edition is hand signed and numbered on the reverse and it does not appear that this piece has the signature and number IF that is indeed what you believed you were buying. Similarly, the edition print was colored yellow (not green) behind the blue circles and dots and it did not have a dotted line (like a real ticket) at the bottom below the numbers and above the "Film Festival.." language. This appears to be a replica poster and want to make sure you were/are aware of that before sending your $. Here are the details for the edition print:

Yeah, you just need to get the foam core off to find it.

Warhol for under $100 USD YahoO!, by Michael Jacob on May 3, 2008 21:17:16 GMT 1, lee3,
Thanks, you have some really good points and I knew going into it, it wasnt the signed edition. most of those were on mylar. warhol also signed a few paper ones on the verso. this is part of the larger edition (i think 500 or 1000), which is still cataloged, done for the susan liss foundation. i only bought it because it was so cheap. ive seem the same mint ones go from $1000 on up.
Ive got three little kids, and if anything happens to it, it will make it that much easier to swallow.

If you have an hour to kill, I highly recommend checking out this show about the Warhol authentication process... It is very interesting...

Warhol for under $100 USD YahoO!, by aginghippie on May 7, 2008 19:49:15 GMT 1, Christies auctioned one in the 2nd May New York auction for $6,600. It's from the unsigned print run of 500 done at the same time as the 200 on mylar pictured in F & S. That's a bit up on normal but probably in line with current prices and finding it under $2,500 would be difficult even in bad condition.
For $100 you have done well, if it's genuine you have done very well although it's never going to be an investment piece it's nice to have - wish I did.
